Two Hundred Years of Theology: Report of a Personal Journey,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Amid a maze of modern theological and philosophical trends, TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF THEOLOGY comes as an welcome travel guide, illuminating and intellectual landscape of our time. What motivated Dutch theologian Hendrikus Berkhof to pursue this study in the first place was a "certain curiosity" about the historical relationship between the gospel and modern thought, between theology and philosophy. One characteristic distinguishing this book from other theological histories is its wider geographical, linguistic, and confessional outlook. Moreover, this work focuses particularly on the process of thinkers' searching and struggling somehow to build a bridge between the gospel and their secularized cultural environment; Berkhof looks especially at the critical moments, the nodal points, the controversies, and the crossroads where people's ways parted. This approach has led him, and will lead the reader, to surprises and fresh insights. In exploring the significant shapers of theology over the past 200 years, Berkhof discusses persons and movements sympathetically, in the light of their cultural and historical contexts, allowing the various thinkers to speak for themselves before interacting with them and criticizing them. He begins with Kant and proceeds to weave the following into his account: Fichte, Schleiermacher, Hegel, Kierkegaard, developments in England, developments in the Netherlands, Ritschl, Kahler, Hermann, Troeltsch, Bultmann, Barth, Kuitert, Roman Catholic theology, the Social Gospel movement, and finally Tillich. After completing his survey, he offers some "backward glances and conclusions," maintaining, with biblical support, that the relation between gospel and modern culture is dialectical and essential. The history of theology is the journey that everyone must make in trying to relate these two entities.
